Bob Clyatt grew up roaming the countryside of Northern California, ending up studying art at UC Berkeley in the late ‘70s. Bob focused on philosophy, family and business innovation, founding distance learning firm HorizonLive (acquired by Blackboard) and i/o 360, an early New York City human-machine interaction design firm which employed 30 designers and was sold to a public company in 1998. He returned to creating art shortly thereafter with an intensive study of sculpture.
